CGiii Comment
Yet another re-hash of Fatal Attraction or a black version of Play Misty - Hollywood certainly likes to remain unimaginative and repetitive.
And this has a gay male secretary - very 21st Century. Oooh such progress!
This expensive mess wouldn't have been so bad if it had been billed as a comedy - the script certainly warrants it.
Bad - really - it's bad.

The(ir) Blurb...
Derek Charles is a hard working man, employed as a asset manager in a private company. He is very happy with his beautiful wife, Sharon, and only son, and because of his hard work he just got a huge promotion. But suddenly he gets a temporary worker who is both attractive and smart, and Derek is understandably impressed with her and also finds himself physically drawn to her. However, this new girl is desperate to get close to him - at any cost.
